Well, you've read the notes, the notes had special moments, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently having special MOOments.

Well, it's Friday. Right? It's been hard to tell what the days were this week. I'm sure next week will be just as confusing. Friday!!!!!

Good morning, all! I have a meeting at the York this afternoon at 4:00. I'll have to levee here around 3, since my last experience with buses was that it will take me an hour to get there. I'm thinking about doing a bit of laundry this morning; if not, I'll do it tomorrow.

I'm pretty much stuck here waiting for a UPS delivery from Staples until I leave, and if it isn't here by then, I'll leave the driver a note to leave the package in front of my door.

Speaking of UPS, I see that one of my Christmas packages has finally moved out of a Lexington KY warehouse and will finally be delivered today.

Nothing else to report. I must make my bed and get to work on Trumpet 4.

TOD:
DVD: a couple of Netflix items, a duple of Criterions
CD: 9 To 5 OBC, Roberta edits, Guy Haines
VCR: Nope

Friday morning greetings! My friend Becky is bringing pastries from Servatii's and coming here for coffee and to admire my angel collection and our Christmas tree ornaments. Over the years, she has made many contributions to both and, because of traveling with her husband at holiday time, she has never seen them all put together.

In case some people might have missed my posting from the other day I am downsizing my CD collection as most of it is digital.

I am offering them $1.00 per title. There are no Jewel cases, but there are the inlaid cards and booklets (Some exceptions). Shipping cost to be determined depending on how many and where you live,

Two dear readers have already responded.

Please PM me and I will send you a list of the remaining titles.

It is a first come first served type of offer.

Thanks

Good morning, all.

I, too, couldn't get to HHW or Kritzerland this morning. Started trying at 8:15 AM eastern and finally got on at 10:00 AM. I tried pinging and running traceroutes (believe me when I say I'm no techie, but I know how to do those two things at the command line), and neither site could be found on the internet, let alone reached. However, it's apparent that others were able to get on during that time, so there's something going on that sometimes affects certain locations and not others -- which, to me, would seem like the worst kind of problem to have to resolve.

Coffee!

ChasSmith · « **Reply #16 on:** December 27, 2013, 07:23:34 AM »

Actually, make that more coffee! I even made a whole pot this time. Like in the old days. Imagine!

Morning all.

That is all.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #18 on:** December 27, 2013, 07:27:36 AM »

As for the notes, that is just the greatest kind of story. If only BK had an audio recording of that first phone rendition of the song!

I'm starting to have this vision... of our very own DR Elmore... wandering through Manhattan... disguised as a fourth trumpet...

I loved reading the Sherman story in the notes today. And I am looking forward to hearing the result.

DR ELMORE I think you are correct about the SMB credit....I am interested in the book at your link.....
